Fluroxypyr-meptyl (CAS No. 81406-37-3) is a synthetic auxin herbicide belonging to the pyridinecarboxylic acid chemical family. The 288 EC (Emulsifiable Concentrate) formulation represents a highly refined lipophilic ester derivative optimized for rapid foliar penetration. Upon absorption by target foliage, the meptyl ester undergoes rapid enzymatical hydrolysis into the parent acid—fluroxypyr—which serves as the biologically active phytotoxic compound.
Operating as a auxin mimic, Fluroxypyr Meptyl binds selectively to auxin receptors in target broadleaf weeds, inducing uncontrolled gene expression, uncoordinated cell division, and vascular tissue destruction. The characteristic symptoms include rapid epinasty (stem twisting), leaf cupping, and subsequent chlorosis and necrosis. Complete systemic control occurs within 7 to 14 days post-application depending on ambient thermal conditions.
The exceptional selectivity of Fluroxypyr Meptyl 288 EC in cereal crops (Wheat, Barley, Oats, Corn, Sorghum) stems from the differential metabolic degradation rates between monocotyledonous cash crops and dicotyledonous weeds. Poaceae species rapidly conjugate the active acid into benign glucose complexes, ensuring optimal crop safety even at elevated application rates.

Direct B2B factory pricing parameters, packaging customizations, and bulk supply economics.
The global valuation of Fluroxypyr Meptyl 288 EC pricing is closely coupled with key chemical precursors, primarily 4-amino-3,5-dichloro-6-fluoro-2-pyridinyloxyacetic acid derivatives and aromatic solvent availability (such as Solvesso 150/200 networks). Fluctuations in upstream fluorination chemistry and regional petroleum distillation indices dictate baseline manufacturing costs. By maintaining direct integration with technical synthesis lines in Northern China, Awiner Biotech minimizes supply chain frictions and provides price stability for international bulk buyers.

Deploying Fluroxypyr Meptyl 288 EC to overcome persistent broadleaf resistance in intensive cropping regimes.
Offers market-leading control of Galium aparine and Galium spurium, even at advanced growth stages (up to 8-10 whorls). Essential for maintaining harvest efficiency in small grains.
Highly effective against ALS-inhibitor resistant and glyphosate-resistant Kochia scoparia strains in corn, sorghum, and post-harvest stubble regimes.
Deep systemic root translocation suppresses perennial broadleaf weeds like Field Bindweed and Wild Buckwheat (*Polygonum convolvulus*), preventing rootstock regeneration.
Provides rapid knockdown of Common Chickweed, Hemp-nettle (*Galeopsis tetrahit*), and volunteer potatoes in cereal rotated fields under low thermal thresholds.
To widen the weed spectrum and manage herbicide resistance, Fluroxypyr Meptyl 288 EC exhibits high physical and chemical compatibility with major partner compounds:
Complements Fluroxypyr by adding broad-spectrum control of Mayweeds (*Matricaria* spp.) and Cruciferous weeds, ideal for spring wheat applications.
Enhances speed of burn-down on mature thistles (*Cirsium arvense*) and reduces overall chemical input costs per hectare.
Allows single-pass post-emergence broadleaf and grass weed management without compromising graminicide efficacy.
Transitioning from traditional EC systems toward sustainable, high-efficiency delivery technologies.
Driven by strict European REACH and global environmental standards, Awiner Biotech's R&D team has engineered low-VOC (Volatile Organic Compound) EC variations. By replacing traditional petroleum aromatic hydrocarbons with bio-based methyl ester solvents derived from renewable vegetable oils, we reduce flashpoint hazards and environmental toxicity while maintaining 100% active solubility.
Our formulation labs are pioneering micro-emulsion (ME) and Emulsion in Water (EW) delivery platforms for Fluroxypyr Meptyl. These water-based matrices eliminate organic solvent odours, dramatically enhance spray droplet retention on waxy leaf cuticles, and increase cold-temperature storage stability in northern latitudes down to -10°C.
With the rapid adoption of aerial UAV application systems across South America and Asia, Fluroxypyr Meptyl 288 EC has been re-formulated with anti-drift adjuvant packages. This prevents spray drift off-target, minimizes evaporation during low-volume high-altitude misting, and maximizes canopy penetration in dense cereal stands.
Facilitating seamless international market access through stringent regulatory alignment.
We provide full GLP (Good Laboratory Practice) dossier packages including 5-batch analysis, toxicological profiles, eco-toxicity studies, and environmental fate data to assist local distributors with Ministry of Agriculture registrations worldwide.
Fluroxypyr Meptyl 288 EC is rated with low mammalian toxicity (Oral LD50 > 2000 mg/kg in rats), but standard PPE (nitrile gloves, protective goggles, organic vapor respirators) is required during handling and mixing to avoid skin sensitization and aquatic impact.
Harmonized MRLs are established across European, Codex, and US EPA frameworks for wheat, barley, and maize, ensuring that crops treated with Fluroxypyr Meptyl 288 EC comply with international grain export trading standards.
